More Than Paradise

When faced with human treachery and the perils of a lost world, two women thrown together in the exotic jungles of New Guinea become reluctant allies and unexpectedly discover that paradise just might be a place in the heart.

Botanist Charlotte Lascelles can't believe her luck when she is selected for a research expedition into the untamed Foja Mountains of New Guinea. The last thing she expects is to find her team being led deep into the mist-shrouded jungle by a woman who has spent the past decade working as a mercenary soldier for shady characters in Indonesia and East Timor. To make matters worse, Ash Evans' history with women represents everything Charlotte loathes.

Although friends accuse Charlotte of being uptight, she simply has standards, and they don't include hooking up with brazen playgirls like Ash. Charlotte can't wait until they reach camp so she can put the distracting and far too sexy guide out of her sight, but things aren't going her way. Compelled to share a tent with her nemesis on the journey into the unknown, Charlotte soon finds her determined reserve no match for the fires Ash ignites.

More Than Paradise

A one-night stand too compelling to walk away from ensnares two women in a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game that begins in the courtroom and ends in a dark labyrinth of danger and desire.

Rhianna Lamb has just spent six months creating a new identity for herself to escape Werner Brigham, the man who stalked and assaulted her. When she arrives in the courtroom to take the witness stand against him, she is stunned to find herself staring at the woman she's having a fling with—none other than Julia Valiant, Brigham's hotshot defense attorney. Jules is equally shocked. Brought into the Brigham trial at the eleventh hour, she had no idea the "Kate" she's been seeing was also the plaintiff. For many reasons she has to win this case, but she also wants to win Rhianna. Her chances for that don't look good after she brutally cross-examines Rhianna and demolishes the prosecution's case. Werner Brigham is acquitted, and worse still, seems to think he can return to his old habits, this time with deadly intent.

A new game is in play, one Jules has to win. But even if she does, will Rhianna ever forgive her?
